Hey Soul Quake,

I just wanted to let you know that I understand your situation and completely understand your feelings. I would have reacted the same way about hanging out with my fiance's ex's, especially one in particular who was really horrible to him.

I personally think you are both better off without these people in your lives. I agree with Perna; you should try to make some new "couple" friends. We have one couple that we're in a bowling league with. Perhaps you could check meetup.com for some couple groups or start hanging out with people from work. Or try taking a class together.

Again, I really think you shouldn't let these people bother you. They truly aren't worth your energy. I think it is absolutely foolish of them to take offense that the new girlfriend doesn't want to hang out with the old. I can understand the well of emotion that this whole situation has you going through, but I really think you should try to keep yourself busy so neither of you dwell on this.

Good luck!
